Eternal Power, whose high abode
Let every creature join
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #54 (1835) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Storm and Thunder; Thunder and storm; Creation and Providence; Weather; Works of creation and providence; Creatures praising God; Praise from all creatures Lyrics:
Let every creature join
To praise th' eternal God;
Ye heav'nly hosts, the song begin,
And sound his name abroad.
Thou sun with golden beams,
And moon with paler rays;
Ye starry lights, ye twinkling flames,
Shine to your Maker's praise.
He built those worlds above,
And fixed their wondrous frame;
By his command they stand or move,
And ever speak his name.
Ye vapors, when ye rise,
Or fall in showers of snow;
Ye thunders, murmuring round the skies,
His power and glory show.
Wind, hail, and flashing fire,
Agree to praise the Lord,
When ye in dreadful storms conspire
To execute his word.
By all his works above
His honors be expressed;
But saints that taste his saving love
Should sing his praises best.
Let earth and ocean know
They owe their Maker praise;
Praise him, ye wat'ry worlds below,
And monsters of the seas.
From mountains near the sky
Let his high praise resound;
From humble shrubs and cedars high,
And vales and fields around.
Ye lions of the wood,
And tamer beasts that graze,
Ye live upon his daily food,
And he expects your praise.
Ye birds of lofty wing,
On high his praises bear;
Or sit on flowery boughs, and sing
Your Maker's glory there.
Ye creeping ants and worms,
His various wisdom show,
And flies, in all your shining swarms,
Praise him that dressed you so.
By all the earth-born race
His honors be expressed;
But saints, that know his heav'nly grace
Should learn to praise him best.
Monarchs of wide command,
Praise ye th' eternal King;
Judges, adore that sovereign hand
Whence all your honors spring.
Let vig'rous youth engage
To sound his praises high:
While growing babes, and with'ring age,
Their feebler voices try.
United zeal be shown
His wondrous fame to raise:
God is the Lord; his name alone
Deserves our endless praise.
Let nature join with art,
And all pronounce him blest;
But saints, that dwell so near his heart,
Should sing his praises best.

4 Those wand'ring Cisterns in the Sky,
Borne by the Winds around
With watry Treasures well supply
The Furrows of the Ground.

And Ranks of Corn appear;
Thy Ways abound with Blessings still,
Thy Goodness crowns the Year. Scripture: Psalm 65 Languages: English

Psalm 90: In Every Age
My Soul thy great Creator praise
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P104 (1766) Topics: God his Creation and Provdence; Praise for creation and providence; Providence in Air, Earth and Sea; Works of creation and providence Lyrics: 1 My Soul, thy great Creator praise;
When cloth'd in his celestial Rays,
He in full Majesty appears,
And, like a Robe his Glory wears.
2 The Heav'ns are for his Curtains spread,
Th' unfathomed Deep he makes his Bed;
Clouds are his Chariot when he flies
On winged Storms across the Skies.
3 Angels, whom his own Breath inspires,
His Ministers are flaming Fires;
And swift as Thought their Armies move,
To bear his Vengeance or his Love.
4 The World's Foundations by his Hand
Are pois'd, and shall for ever stand;
He binds the Ocean in his Chain,
Lest it should drown the Earth again.
5 When Earth was cover'd with the Flood,
Which high above the Mountains stood,
He thunder'd, and the Ocean fled,
Confin'd to its appointed Bed.
6 The swelling Billows know their Bound,
And in their Channels walk their Round;
Yet thence convey'd by secret Veins,
They spring on Hills, and drench the Plains.
7 He bids the Crystal Fountains flow;
And chear the Vallies as they go,
Tame Heifers there their Thirst allay,
And for the Stream wild Asses bray.
8 From pleasant Trees which shade the Brink,
The Lark and Linnet light to drink;
Their Songs the Lark and Linnet raise,
And chide our Silence in his Praise.
Pause I
9 GOD from his cloudy Cistern pours
On the parch'd Earth enriching Show'rs;
The Grove, the Garden, and the Field,
A Thousand joyful Blessings yield.
10 He makes the grassy Food arise,
And gives the Cattle large Supplies;
With Herbs for Man, of various Pow'r,
To nourish Nature, or to cure.
11 What noble Fruit the Vines produce!
The Olive yields a shining Juice;
Our Hearts are cheer'd with gen'rous Wine,
With inward Joy our Faces shine.
12 O bless his Name, ye Britons, fed
With Nature's chief Supporter, Bread:
While Bread your vital Strength imparts,
Serve him with Vigour in your Hearts.
Pause II
13 Behold the stately Cedar stands
Rais'd in the Forest by his Hands:
Birds to the Boughs for Shelter fly,
And build their Nests secure and high.
14 To craggy Hill ascends the Goat;
And at the airy Mountain's Foot
The feebler Creatures make their Cell;
He gives them Wisdom where to dwell.
15 He sets the Sun his circling Race,
Appoints the Moon to change her Face;
And when thick Darkness veils the Day,
Calls out wild Beasts to hunt their Prey.
16 Fierce Lions lead their Young abroad,
And roaring, ask their Meat from GOD;
But when the Morning-Beams arise,
The savage Beast to Covert flies.
17 Then Man to daily Labour goes:
The Night was made for his Repose;
Sleep is thy Gift, that sweet Relief
From tiresome Toil and wasting Grief.
18 How strange thy Works! how great thy Skill!
And ev'ry Land thy Riches fill:
Thy Wisdom round the World we see,
This spacious Earth is full of Thee.
19 Nor less thy Glories in the Deep,
Where Fish in Millions swim and creep,
With wond'rous Motions, swift or slow,
Still wand'ring in the Paths below.
10 There Ships divide their watry Way,
And Flocks of scaly Monsters play;
There dwells the huge Leviathan,
And foams and sports in Spite of Man.
Pause III
21 Vast are thy Works, Almighty Lord,
All Nature rests upon thy Word,
And the whole Race of Creatures stands,
Waiting their Portion from thy Hands.
22 While each receives his diff'rent Food,
Their chearful Looks pronounce it good:
Eagles and Bears, and Whales and Worms,
Rejoice and praise in diff'rent Forms.
23 But when thy Face is hid, they mourn,
And dying to their Dust return;
Both Man and Beast their Souls resign;
Life, Breath and Spirit, all is thine.
24 But thou canst breathe on Dust again,
And fill the World with Beasts and Men;
A Word of thy creating Breath
Repairs the Wastes of Time and Death.
25 His Works, the Wonders of his Might,
Are honour'd with his own Delight;
How awful are his glorious Ways!
The Lord is dreadful in his Praise.
26 The Earth stands trembling at thy Stroke,
And at thy Touch the Mountains smoke;
Yet humble Souls may see thy Face,
And tell their Wants to sov'reign Grace.
27 In Thee my Hopes and Wishes meet,
And make my Meditations sweet;
Thy Praises shall my Breath employ,
Till it expire in endless Joy.
28 While haughty Sinners die accurst,
Their Glory bury'd with their Dust,
I to my GOD, my heav'nly King,
Immortal Hallelujahs sing.

to ask the Lord's blessing;

How oft have sin and Satan strove
To rend my soul from thee, my God!
But everlasting is thy love,
And Jesus seals it with his blood.
The oath and promise of the Lord
Join to confirm the wondrous grace;
Eternal power performs the word,
And fills all heav'n with endless praise.
Amidst temptations sharp and long,
My soul to this dear refuge flies;
Hope is my anchor, firm and strong,
While tempests blow and billows rise.
The gospel bears my spirit up;
A faithful and unchanging God
Lays the foundation for my hope
In oaths, and promises, and blood.

Children of the Heavenly Father
Author: Caroline V. Sandell-Berg; Ernst W. Olson Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #141 (1989) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Glory of the Triune God Providence Lyrics: 1 Children of the heavenly Father
safely in his bosom gather;
nestling bird nor star in heaven
such a refuge e'er was given.
2 God his own doth tend and nourish;
in his holy courts they flourish;
from all evil things he spares them;
in his mighty arms he bears them.
3 Neither life nor death shall ever
from the Lord his children sever;
unto them his grace he showeth,
and their sorrows all he knoweth.
4 Though he giveth or he taketh,
God his children ne'er forsaketh;
his the loving purpose solely
to preserve them pure and holy. Languages: English Tune Title: TRYGGARE KAN INGEN VARA
